And the ball is on the 13yard line... Durals front front is at the 11.5yard line at best(more like the 11). Still a yard and a half off the LOS. He wasn't close to being on the LOS.


At the 11? Dupree is at the 11, he's standing right in it, and his back leg is behind the 10. Durals back foot is closer to the 10.5 which would put his front leg closer to the 12.

But this is my point. It's within the margin of error of the naked eye, and why it's such a shitty call.

It's literally an eye ball test. I keep saying it, but regardless I don't think a penalty here fits the spirit of the rule.

So you think that the difference between Durals back leg to his front leg is like 4.5feet? Really?

Dupre is taller and has longer legs and his back foot is at the 10yard like and his front foot is right at the 11yard line... A distance of 3ft between his front and back foot. You mean to tell me that the distance between Durals feet is 1.5ft longer than Dupres? Really?

No it's not. And even majority of people on the rant think that it's obvious that he's not lined up on the LOS, and this is tRant.

It's really not that close. It was easy to tell on the replay they showed during the game. And if you can't see how far off he was in this still picture with the black line showing the line of scrimmage then idk what to tell you
